Glacé Icing may be poured over the cakes, or individual cakes may be dipped into it. If a large cake is to be iced, put it on a wire stand placed on a sheet of white paper, and pour over enough icing to cover the top only, or the top and sides, as desired. Any icing that runs over may be gathered up and used again. Small cakes may be iced in the same way. They may be held on the point of a pallette knife over the pan of icing, and the icing poured over them, or they may be dipped right into the icing. Always decorate cakes while icing is still soft.
